Morning all!

Thanks for opening the door D! The heat is OFF and the AC is ON now. Upper 80's and 90"s for a few days down here with high humidity, YUK!

Probably work on the weed whacking today and do a couple things to the V8 944.


Have a good weekend every one!

Morning fella coal burners ! This guy's is super stoked for the weekend. I have a beautiful 5lb brisket goin on the smoker! Oooooo baby it's gonna be a good weekend. Grabbing some jalapeños as a side. Hollow them puppies out, spoon in some cream cheese and wrap with some bacon. Garnish heavy with some myron mixon rub and toss on the smoker while the brisket is doin its thing. Can ya tell I'm hyped. We have a vacation coming up soon. We are heading up to arrowhead lake Maine for a week. Looking forward to unplugging and shutting out all the noise. Have a good weekend all.

Thanks D for the coffee, time for some iced tea now. Worked a few hours this morning then did a few chores, took the chain saw to a stump I’m trying to get rid of hydrated it with some used oil and lit. Now I’m enjoying the ac and watching the race at Texas. What times the grub going to be ready Anthony? Sounds real good!!! Stay cool fellows!!!

We are in our second day of high 80’s with high humidity. All I can say is yuck…

Dad had some ash trees come down so we got that blocked, split, and I am in the process of hauling it home. It is slow going due to the heat but I am getting there. We will be set for years of campfires.

My wife and youngest son were in Ottawa when a tornado touched down and knocked the power out to most of the city. Thankfully they were not hurt, but it was a long night in a hotel with no AC on a hot weekend. The rest of the hockey tournament was cancelled so they are on their way home a day early.

I was busy riding bike and drinking beer in Hershey yesterday at an event called Bikes and Beers. Today I am at work trying to earn money to keep the lights on and food on the table. Fred, thanks for not running the fan so that BB can plug his electric car in.
